+X, Jan 1999 - Present

Principal

I’ve been freelancing for almost 20 years; +X is only the latest name for my consultancy. Since 1999 I’ve helped start several web development studios, acquiring clients such as Logitech, Microsoft, and Hewlett Packard, as well as offering affordable and high quality services to small businesses.


A notable project I contributed to was PDC's DisasterAlert, which required advanced use of the Google Maps API for Javascript (v3), including drawing lines, circles, and custom shapes on the map, saving worldwide data as KML, usage of AGS, ESRI, and many other map layer types, advanced projection conversions, and libraries such as proj4js and Leaflet.

Napster, Dec 2009 - Sept 2010

Senior Front End Engineer

At Napster I upgraded the mobile website to a modern version, created the latest Flash-based music player. Notably, I developed and compiled an ActionScript 3 SWC library that enabled millions of Flash users to access the Napster API within their projects. This required custom functionality which I pioneered by using ByteArray, which was the only possible way to handle certain data that was only visible by packet sniffing with Wireshark.

FIM / MySpace, Nov 2006 - Feb 2008

Senior Front End Engineer

I led the front end team in building MySpace MyAds, basically what is now Facebook Ads, and it was the only profitable project in the years following FOX’s disastrous acquisition of MySpace.


Our small team implemented the entire front end framework in HTML, CSS, and the Dojo and Prototype Javascript libraries. I also evangelized and pioneered the use of Adobe Flex and implemented charting and reporting components using Flex Builder 2 / Actionscript 3.0.
